hi
Iam a New Member to this Forum . I am going through this forum since couple of months and I thought it will be better for me to put forth my case and have your suggestions to proceed further.
I am holding GC since Jan 12 2004 and I am going to file N 400 in Jan 2009. My case is not straight forward. A Misdemeanor Case was filed in 2005 and also Citation from Police for Hit and Run case in 2007.
I have been charge sheeted by Dist Court. on Two Counts for committing the crime of Petit Larcency a misdemeanor by unlawfully take a Gift Card belonging to others, the card value is less than $ 500.00 and Count 2 , obtaining merchandise by false pretense a misdemeanor. I was arrested and later rleased on bail. My case was expunged by the court in 2007 after serving community service for 24 hours and payment of court fees. I have on record all the court documents including order of expungement from Court.
Last year 2007, after getting my driving license, I hit a parked vehicle in the parking lot and i did not exchange the infformation, later police issued a citiation asked me to attend court and in the court they asked me to pay fine amounting to $ 25.00 and since I have insurrance on my car, my insurance comjpany paid the damage to the other party.
These are the negative points from me in order to file N 400 application. I am going to provide all the facts in the application. My concern is that whether am I entitle to apply application. If so, can I file individually or is it better to go through an attorney. Whether my case falls under deportation in case if I apply for N 400.
I request all who are experienced can suggest what is the best course of action whether to file N 400 or to continue with GC so as to avoid further complications.
I await.
Thanks
